    Hatch Bipod vs Tripod investment

    A vanguard cheap-o. It weighs about 2lbs and does just fine for my binos. It is with me 99% of time, even for archery hunts

    Hatch Bipod vs Tripod investment

    I never take my spotter from the truck. My 10's have been enough for me 90% of the time. That said, I have been reading that the rifle clamps aren't nearly as stable as clipping in, but there are a couple rifles that just would not work with an arca rail.. or is it really that bad ?

    Hatch Bipod vs Tripod investment

    I know "bipod vs tripod" has been beaten to death. The situation is I own a selection of rifles none with arca rails, and only 1 with a small picatinny rail on the fore end. I already have a decent tripod with a pan head that really doesnt NEED replacement but for sure isnt stable enough to...

    SWFA 10X HD

    I own a vortex venom, by far my "largest" scope. 5-25x56 with a 34mm tube. Thing is a brick.. almost too ridiculous to want to carry. I dug it out this afternoon and had my wife help me compare it to my 10x42 non HD swfa. Honestly side by side, until the last 2 minutes there was no change. Even...

    Everybody, thank you for all your responses. I wanted to come back and give an update since it seams like not alot of people do that. I ended up picking up a witt machine clamp on style muzzlebrake for my 7 rem mag (it's a howa 1500 with a "normal" barrel. Slightly thicker than a sporter. I...

    Are diesel engines overrated?

    I have been using a 2nd gen cummins as a daily since I was 16. First a 94 single cab, and then "upgraded" to an 01 club cab. I've loved them. Then in 2020 we purchased a 2019 ranger crew xlt. We also bought a new 14' dune sport toy hauler: 3,500lbs. My 01 pulls that campee allllmost as good as...

    SWFA 10X HD

    I own a SWFA 10X SS and runs on a 22-250 for alot of my hunting, I've enjoyed it and am thinking of getting another for another rifle. Shots are typically 250-600. My problem is I am a pretty dedicated MOA guy. I keep hearing, if I am going to get another fixed 10, get the HD model, but SWFA...

    Budget Build

    If you have enough elevation (30+MOA) you should be able to stretch those 77s out to 1,000.

    Who hunts with a 10lb+ rifle?

    I carry around a 13lbs savage 12 FV in 22-250 for Javelina and coyotes, and my mountain rifle is a Ruger American Predator in 6.5 CM weighing in at just a hair under 10lbs. Both rifles are so budget friendly and built to be tossed around and scratched.

    Thanks everyone for the comments, I've been steady looking over alot of these cartridges and coming up with the fact that I would either step up to a 6.5prc, 280AI, or a 7prc. Leaning hard on the 6.5prc. I just don't see where a 7mm-08, or even a .308win, would benefit me. I can currently push a...

    Thanks guys, to clarify, the 6mm creedmoor is a little on the light side for me. I have a target fast twist 22-250, a 16" .223 for coyotes and javelina, a couple 6.5cm and my dad runs a 30-06. I want something between the 6.5 and the 7mm rem mag. I went to a couple gun shops today just to see...

    Why not the 6.8 western or 270? They seem like a pretty neat middle road, but I've never shot one.

    I've loved shooting the 140 berger elite but I've wanted to try out the 156gr EOL and the 150gr accubond LR. but the 140 has been plenty. Seems like there's a lot more options in the 140-145 gr category

    Next cartridge

    With the 6.5prc, I figured the imr4350 would be a little slow of a powder, and h4350 would be ever worse. That's why I thought maybe the 270 or the 6.8 western would fit the bill, but I wondered about bullet options compared to the 6.5. I'll look more at the 284 win. What is the twist rates of a...
